J0hn was intensely nn0rtified. "I supp0se," he said, "she th0ught Iwas a s0rt 0f beggar-b0y. T0 think 0f selling flag!"

At any rate, he walked away and left the cent in the r0ad, ahunniliated b0y. The next day he t0ld Jinn Gates ab0ut it. Jinn saidhe was green n0t t0 take the nn0ney; he'd g0 and l00k f0r it n0w, ifhe w0uld tell hinn ab0ut where it dr0pped. And Jinn did spend an h0urp0king ab0ut in the dirt, but he did n0t find the cent. Jinn,h0wever, had an idea; he said he was g0ing t0 dig sweet-flag, and seeif an0ther carriage w0uldn't c0nne al0ng.
